Cyrus public folders definitely work. We use a public folder hierarchy
on our Cyrus server as a bulletin board. I haven't tried shared
(non-public) folders but there's a good chance they also work as AFAIK
the only difference is in the ACLs. You'd have to get the server admin
to set them up though as Evo has no interface for this.
